OBJECT.CHILDREN

Retrieves children of a particular node.

Syntax

<OBJECT.CHILDREN NAME="name of node"
                 LIST="some list"
                 [OBJECTTYPE="some object type"]
                 [OBJECID="some object id"]
                 [OBJECTVERSION="some object version"]
                 [CODE="selected code"]
                 [ORDER="name1,name2,name3"]/>

Parameters

NAME (required)

Name of the parent node.

LIST (required)

Specifies the name of the list in the list pool. This is the same list pool used by other Content Server tags that generate lists. If a list exists with the same name, it is replaced by the new list.

OBJECTTYPE (optional)

Specifies a requested object type for the child nodes. It can be used in conjunction with the objectid and objectversion parameters to request a specific object, or it can be used independently to request all objects of a specific class.

OBJECTID (optional)

Specifies a requested object identifier for the child nodes. It should be used in conjunction with the objecttype parameter, to specify the class of object.

OBJECTVERSION (optional)

Specifies a requested object version for the child nodes. This parameter is typically used to uniquely identify an object, when used in conjunction with the objecttype and objectid parameters.

CODE (optional)

Allows for selection of child nodes based on the code associated with the node.

ORDER (optional)

Specifies a comma separated list of field names that should be used to order the list of objects.

Description

This tag builds a list of child node objects that meet specified criteria.

errno

The possible values of errno include:

Value	Description
-10004	A required parameter is missing.
-10005	The requested object is not in the object pool (is not loaded into memory).
-10006	The object ID is not valid.
-10007	The version of the object is not valid.

Example

The following example retrieves only the child nodes from the sample object type from parent node1:

<OBJECTCHILDREN NAME="node1"
                 LIST="list1"
                 OBJECTYPE="sample"/>
